I verified that these two do still exist. Allow me to elaborate, though they have been reported before.
On OSX, for some unknown reason the sun is displayed as a square (or diamond, if you like) instead of as a circle. Unknown to me, anyway; I think the MacFlightGear folks have a patch. Here's a screenshot: http://hans.fugal.net/tmp/fg/square-sun.png The weather bug is in two pieces, actually. First, when you go into the Weather Scenario dialog, "None" is always selected, regardless of what weather is actually being used. If one is using real weather fetch as I am, it should say METAR. When real weather fetch is enabled, no matter what Weather Scenario (thunderstorm, none, fair) or what conditions or clouds I set manually, it instantly reverts to real weather. I think these two bugs should be fixed before release. I think the square sun is an easy fix (hopefully the MacFlightGear people can chime in here). If fixing the weather bug isn't feasible, then we should at least disable those dialogs when real weather fetch is enabled.
